So I have this habit of buying things in pairs when trying a new makeup product. I just don't know why. One doesn't seem enough but three seems too many. This is a trend you'll probably see as time goes on. I think the reasoning is that if one of them happens to be a fluke, the other one might not be. Not sure.
So here is the latest product to be purchased in a pair, the much-discussed Revlon Lip Butters in "Strawberry Shortcake" (left) and "Berry Smoothie" (right). Strawberry Shortcake is a pink with shimmer and Berry Smoothie is a berry-red with shimmer.
They are quite pigmented for a product marketed as a lip butter. Most tinted lip balms need quite a few swipes for the tint to show up on the lips, these just need one. Many people have commented that this is almost a lipstick and I agree. It certainly feels hydrating and the texture is very smooth. One downfall is it's perhaps a little too smooth. Applying too much pressure while gliding this on can cause the product to smoosh around and make a mess when you try to rotate the product back down. Be careful!
Final verdict: absolute love, especially Strawberry Shortcake. Some people have reported that the Barbie-pink colour is a bit garish but I find that it actually works quite well with my skintone. Love it! I am planning to purchase Peach Parfait and Creme Brulee in the future. Glad I joined the bandwagon on this one.
